Falling For Fall

It feels a bit chilly out, doesn’t it?  That slight pleasant nippiness to the air isn’t necessarily something to dislike, in fact it can be quite nice!  To me, Fall is always a time of renewal, of beginnings, and of change.  The trees reminding us all that letting go of the old really can be beautiful!

It’s the Kustom

Yay!  It’s time again for my favourite event, Kustom9!  I always find things I must have at this event, and this month is going to be even awesomer than usual since it’s their anniversary!  7 years old is certainly something to celebrate, and in the customary SL way – the giving of gifts – it is something I can really get behind.  Every booth (or almost every!) has a gift for members of the free-to-join Kustom9 group.  I picked up this fun sweater from Spirit (the sleeves are actually tied up behind my back…lol!) , which comes with an HUD that allows you to customize the colours of the sleeves and main panel, as well as this lovely pair of boots from Ison.  The boots come with an HUD to change up the colours as well and they are sized for Freya, Legacy and Maitreya.

Sweater Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Slink Original

If you can’t get in right away, don’t despair – Kustom9 is running until November 10th.  There’s also a Cam Sim to visit in case you can’t get into the Main Sim right away.

Enjoy!

All in the Dark

Time for a bit more creepy and smidge more crawly.  Well, maybe none of that, but definitely a lot more fancy, dark and free!  I just love October.  It’s so filled with lovely things, and there are oh so many to be had in Second Life!

Back to Shopping and Hopping

The Halloween Shop & Hop is still going strong, and you’ll certainly be able to shop a little more lag free now that the event has been on for a while.  You have until November first to make your way through the eight sims filled with goodies!  You don’t need a group for any of these freebies!  Here’s what I’m wearing:

• FREE Dress by Baiastice sized for Freya, Hourglass, Hourglass Petite, Legacy, Maitreya Petite, Maitreya and Perky in 12 Colours
• FREE Shoes by Mosquito’s Way sized for Belleza, Legacy, Maitreya and Slink in 8 Colours

Dark but Whimsical

I love a good costume.  What I like even more is to mix elements of costume in with every day clothing.  You know, a cat ear here, a tutu there… The whimsical never fails to turn a regular day into something a bit more special.  Today I’m mixing up a bunch of dark elements together to make an outfit that just makes one smile.

More Trick or Treating

I told you yesterday that there were free gifts to be had over at Trick or Treat Lane.  I couldn’t resist showing you two more finds I picked up there.  You’ll remember that you don’t need to join a group to get these gifts, but some of the stalls will have you do a bit of searching for your prize.  If you see a little ghost outside, he’s hidden your gift inside.  I’m showing you Alaskametro’s fun tights that come with classic system layers as well as an Omega applier.  The shirt is the second gift, from JR Wolf, which I had to immediately put on.  It comes sized for Alice, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, Freya, Hourglass, Isis, Maitreya, Maitreya Petite, Legacy, Physique and Venus… and will have you hallo-ready lickety split!

You’ve got until November 1st to pick up the goodies from Trick or Treat Lane!

Luck is on my Side

Here’s the thing about Lucky Letter boards.  I love them to death, but they also drive me completely batty.  You know those ones that take 20 years to switch between letters?  Or the ones that suddenly decide that the first letter of your name no longer exists?  Or perhaps the ones that are very partial to numbers instead of letters…. If I ever come across one that has the chemical symbol for Boron instead of a normal first letter of a name, then I really won’t be surprised.  Anyway, I love a good lucky board.  Really, I do.  I just like to have a little complain about their evil nature now and then!

Loads of Luck

Right, now that I’ve complained your ears off, let me tell you all about the awesome lucky boards at LSR.  There is a massssiiiiiiive wall of them, and four new ones have just been added this week.  Join their group for 99L, and you’ll have a wardrobe people will be jealous of.  This pretty dress I’ve got on is one of the newest lucky boards, and it was kind of nice that I didn’t have to wait forever for my letter to come up.  There are also a pile of group gifts at LSR to grab while you’re there!  I’ve included the vendor shots of the four newest lucky boards below for your viewing pleasure.

Big Love

Love is an adventure. It can make you feel 50 feet tall, and capable of anything. Perhaps that’s why I felt a bit bold and adventuresome while wearing this dress by DM. It’s the perfect casual dress, comfortable, not too short, but not too long, and just the right mix of edgy and cute.

Lucky for us this dress also happens to be a free group gift at DM. The gift includes a color change hud with a few solid color options for the main part of the dress. The DM group is free to join.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara & Petite

Also, my starry violet eyes are from a mid-week “Golden Days Weekly Sales” sale offer at Madame Noir. Blue told me about the sale, and I of course had to check it out. Madame Noir has two sets of beautifully detailed eyes on sale for 55 lindens from now until the 25th. You will need to join the “Golden Days Weekly Sales” group to use the vendor. The group is free to join.

I Want Your Stupid Love

Happiness is looking cute in the sunshine.  I’m back in “end of Summer” mode today, with jean shorts, and cropped tops.  But I guess a little nod to the cooler temps are my awesome boots and a little jacket to keep away the nip in the air.  Hey, it will always be summer in my head!

The Alpha

This awesome top, jacket and jean short combo come from Alpha Female.  It’s their latest group gift (one of two cute free gifts you’ll find there) and I love every minute of it.  From the T-Shirt with “stupid love” emblazoned on it, to the ripped shorts, I am super happy with this look. There’s also a set of ankle boots in the box too (not pictured).  To get it, just join the Alpha Female group for free, and click on the vendor.  If you’re looking for male gifts, check the other side of the shop as well, because there are gifts in the Alpha Male section!

Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Maitreya

Toot it or Boot it

Ah, there’s nothing as empowering as a good set of boots.  I love a rugged look with a floral treatment.  You’ll find these bad boys over at LaPerla on their wall of gifts which is located up on the second floor.  No need to join a group, just pay the vendor 1L and you’re good to go.  There’s also a plain black version of the boot too in the box.  Oh, and there are lots of other great gift options to grab while you’re there!

For the Fabulous in a Fix

What does a girl do when she’s in a bit of a fix?  You know, the kind of fix that involves requiring a bit of retail therapy ASAP.  Well, that’s an easy answer.  First, get some comfy clothes on (that are also fashionable, of course) then head out the door, pocketbook in hand.  It’s that simple!  I’ve got step one covered for you today!

It’s All Covered

This cute top and matching overall-ish leggings are the latest group gift from BSassy.  They’ve got a massive wall of gifts there for members of their free to join group.  I really enjoy this latest look though!  It’s playful in all the right ways, and kind of makes me think of 80’s workout videos.  But not in a cheesy way.  Right?  Am I making sense?  Probably not.  Go grab it!

Every Girl Needs a Good Gown

Occasionally, I like to dress up.  It doesn’t happen that often, to be fair, since I’m usually prancing around in something bright, comfy, weird or a bit goth.  But when a really nice gown comes along, all my pretenses of every day comfort fly out the window and I’ll class up the joint.  Today just the right gown came along!

Goddess

The latest group gift from MAAI has me feeling like a tall drink of sort of intimidating water.  This floor length, curve-hugging gown in a deep red covered in black lace is just right for the cusp of Fall.  I feel like I could lure unsuspecting people under my sway in this look!  I may be waxing a bit poetic, but you know that a good outfit really can create a mood.  To get yours, join the MAAI group for free!

Sizes

• Maitreya
• Legacy

Bejeweled

To go with it, you’ll need the perfect jewelry and Sweet Thing are delivering!  The necklace I’m wearing is just so right with it’s crystals and filigree wire work.  I just love it.  The included HUD has so many different colour options that you’ll be able to make this match all sorts of different looks.  Join the Sweet Thing group for free, and click on the vendor located over the front desk.  There are a bunch of other gifts there too!

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some people to entrance.

She Walks in Beauty

As Pru so astutely pointed out earlier today, it is indeed September.  One of the best months of the year, in my books.  It always has that shiver of new beginnings and the hint of crispness about its edges.  I made my way over to Luane’s World, only to discover that they’ve switched over to Autumn landscaping!  It really is quite pretty, do check it out!

Beauty, You Say?

The Beauty Sales Event has started, and you’ll be pleased to hear that there are a bunch of free event gifts there!  I counted at least 6 cool clothes and accessories you can grab when you join their free group.  I’m wearing the Chara Roses dress by LSR, as well as the super cool Scorpion bag by My Bags.  This event is running until September 23rd, so you have a bit of time to grab the goodies!  I wouldn’t delay though, they just far too cute to pass up!
